The document discusses content delivery networks (CDNs) and their components and functions. It begins with an introduction to CDNs, noting their goal of maximizing bandwidth by caching content at various network points near clients. It then discusses CDN architecture, components including delivery, storage, origin and control nodes, and functions such as caching, management/control, publishing/storage, and content delivery. Finally, it briefly mentions how CDNs could be applied to future telecommunication systems.

Introduction A content delivery network or content distribution network(CDN) is a system of caches containing copies of data, placed at various points in a network so as to maximize bandwidth for access to the data from clients throughout the network. Main Goal: A client accesses a copy of the data near to the client, as opposed to all clients accessing the same central server, so as to avoid bottlenecks near that server. Content types include web objects, downloadable objects (media files, software, and documents), applications and real time media streams. Why we need CDNs? What does CDNs stand for?

CDN Components Delivery Nodes– primary purpose is delivery of data to consumers. It contains caches each running one or more delivery applications; these tend to be deployed as close to the edge (near the consumers) as possible. Storage Nodes – primary purpose is providing data to caches, these can be deployed in a hierarchical model to allow tiered caching and protection to any origin servers. These nodes can also be used where pre-publishing of content is required rather than content being acquired on demand from origin servers. Origin Nodes – these are the master sources for content and can be deployed within the operator’s network (on-net) or more commonly within a content owner’s infrastructure. A number of origins will be provided for scale and resilience. Control Node – primary purpose is to host the management, routing and monitoring components of a CDN. This will be typically the integration point into any OSS/BSS systems and Network Operations Centres.
